Description:

This is the home of Israeli Nobel laureate S.Y. Agnon, one of the great writers of the twentieth century. Agnon lived and wrote here in this house in the Talpiyot neighborhood for more than 40 years. Today, the Bauhaus-style house is a museum, exhibit space and meeting place. Upstairs you can see Agnon's extensive library and the place where he wrote many of his short stories and novels.
